Voltage Clamping

Sodium-independent Cl movement (i.e., Cl-anion exchange) has not previously been identified in the basolateral membranes of rat colonic epithelial cells. The present study demonstrates Cl-HCO3 exchange as the mechanism for 36Cl uptake in basolateral membrane vesicles (BLMV) prepared in the presence of a protease inhibitor cocktail from rat distal colon. Studies of 36Cl uptake performed with BLMV prepared with different types of protease inhibitors indicate that preventing the cleavage of the COOH-terminal end of AE2 protein by serine-type proteases was responsible for the demonstration of Cl-HCO3 exchange. In the absence of voltage clamping, both outward OH gradient (pHout/pHin: 7.5/5.5) and outward HCO3 gradient stimulated transient 36Cl uptake accumulation. However, voltage clamping with K-ionophore, valinomycin, almost completely (87%) inhibited the OH gradient-driven 36Cl uptake, whereas HCO3 gradient-driven 36Cl uptake was only partially inhibited (38%). Both electroneutral HCO3 and OH gradient-driven 36Cl uptake were 1) completely inhibited by DIDS, an anion exchange inhibitor, with a half-maximal inhibitory constant ( Ki) of ∼26.9 and 30.6 μM, respectively, 2) not inhibited by 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid(NPPB), a Cl channel blocker, 3) saturated by increasing extravesicular Cl concentration with a Km for Cl of ∼12.6 and 14.2 mM, respectively, and 4) present in both surface and crypt cells. Intracellular pH (pHi) was also determined with 2′,7′-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein-acetomethylester (BCECF-AM) in an isolated superfused crypt preparation. Removal of Cl resulted in a DIDS-inhibitable increase in pHi both in HCO3-buffered and in the nominally HCO3-free buffered solutions (0.28 ± 0.02 and 0.11 ± 0.02 pH units, respectively). We conclude that a carrier-mediated electroneutral Cl-HCO3 exchange is present in basolateral membranes and that, in the absence of HCO3, Cl-HCO3 exchange can function as a Cl-OH exchange and regulate pHi across basolateral membranes of rat distal colon.

Abstract. To examine the hormonal regulation of the ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump in the kidneys, the ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake by the basolateral membrane vesicles in the renal cortex was measured using radioactive calcium (45Ca2+) in rats with vitamin D deficiency or rats undergoing thyroparathyroidectomy. The Vmax of the Ca2+ pump activity was increased not only by administering calcitriol, but also by normalizing the serum calcium level in vitamin D-deficient rats. PTH suppressed the Ca2+ pump activity in normocalcemic vitamin D-deficient rats. Thyroparathyroidectomy did not affect the Ca2+ pump activity in the kidneys of normal rats. It was concluded that the ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump activity was depressed by secondary hyperparathyroidism in vitamin D-deficient rats.

Overshoot Phenomenon

The transport of uridine into rabbit renal outer-cortical brush-border and basolateral membrane vesicles was compared at 22 degrees C. Uridine was taken up into an osmotically active space in the absence of metabolism for both types of membrane vesicles. Uridine influx by brush-border membrane vesicles was stimulated by Na+, and in the presence of inwardly directed gradients of Na+ a transient overshoot phenomenon was observed, indicating active transport. Kinetic analysis of the saturable Na+-dependent component of uridine flux indicated that it was consistent with Michaelis-Menten kinetics (Km 12 +/- 3 microM, Vmax. 3.9 +/- 0.9 pmol/s per mg of protein). The sodium:uridine coupling stoichiometry was found to be consistent with 1:1 and involved the net transfer of positive charge. In contrast, uridine influx by basolateral membrane vesicles was not dependent on the cation present and was inhibited by nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR). NBMPR-sensitive uridine transport was saturable (Km 137 +/- 20 microM, Vmax. 5.2 +/- 0.6 pmol/s per mg of protein). Inhibition of uridine flux by NBMPR was associated with high-affinity binding of NBMPR to the basolateral membrane (Kd 0.74 +/- 0.46 nM). Binding of NBMPR to these sites was competitively blocked by adenosine and uridine. These results indicate that uridine crosses the brush-border surface of rabbit proximal renal tubule cells by Na+-dependent pathways, but permeates the basolateral surface by NBMPR-sensitive facilitated-diffusion carriers.

Rat Proximal Tubule

The transport of urate in the mammalian nephron is largely confined to the proximal tubule. Depending on the species, net reabsorption or net secretion is observed. The rat, like the human and the mongrel dog, demonstrates net reabsorption of urate and has been the most extensively studied species. The unidirectional reabsorption and secretion of urate in the rat proximal tubule occur via a passive and presumably paracellular route and by a mediated transcellular route. The reabsorption of urate, and possibly its secretion, can occur against an electrochemical gradient. A variety of drugs and other compounds affect the reabsorption and secretion of urate. The effects of these agents depend on their site of application (luminal or blood), concentration, and occasionally their participation in transport processes that do not have affinity for urate. Recent studies with renal brush border and basolateral membrane vesicles from the rat and brush border vesicles from the dog have determined the mechanisms for urate transport across the luminal and antiluminal membranes of the proximal tubule cell. Brush border membrane vesicles contain an anion exchanger with affinity for urate, hydroxyl ion, bicarbonate, chloride, lactate, p-aminohippurate (PAH), and a variety of other organic anions. Basolateral membrane vesicles contain an anion exchanger with affinity for urate and chloride but not for PAH. Both membrane vesicle preparations also permit urate translocation by simple diffusion. A model for the transcellular reabsorption and secretion of urate in the rat proximal tubule is proposed. This model is based on the vesicle studies, and it can potentially explain the majority of urate transport data obtained with in vivo techniques.

Na depletion inhibits electroneutral Na-Cl absorption in intact tissues and Na/H exchange in apical membrane vesicles (AMV) of rat distal colon. Two anion (Cl/HCO3 and Cl/OH) exchanges have been identified in AMV from surface cells of rat distal colon. To determine whether Cl/HCO3 and/or Cl/OH exchange is responsible for vectorial Cl movement, this study examined the spatial distribution and the effect of Na depletion on anion-dependent 36Cl uptake by AMV in rat distal colon. These studies demonstrate that HCO3 concentration gradient-driven36Cl uptake (i.e., Cl/HCO3 exchange) is 1) primarily present in AMV from surface cells and 2) markedly reduced by Na depletion. In contrast, OH concentration gradient-driven36Cl uptake (i.e., Cl/OH exchange) present in both surface and crypt cells is not affected by Na depletion. In Na-depleted animals HCO3 also stimulates36Cl via Cl/OH exchange with low affinity. These results suggest that Cl/HCO3 exchange is responsible for vectorial Cl absorption, whereas Cl/OH exchange is involved in cell volume and/or cell pH homeostasis.

This study describes Cl-HCO3 and Cl-OH exchanges as the mechanism for Cl uptake by apical membrane vesicles (AMV) of rat distal colon. Although HCO3 gradient-stimulated 36Cl uptake was additionally stimulated by the additional presence of a pH gradient, pH gradient-stimulated 36Cl uptake was not further enhanced by a HCO3 gradient. HCO3 gradient-stimulated and OH gradient-stimulated 36Cl uptake was not inhibited by voltage clamping, with K and its ionophore valinomycin, but was inhibited by 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, an anion exchange inhibitor, with an apparent inhibitory constant of 7.8 and 106.0 microM, respectively. Increasing intravesicular OH concentration in the absence of HCO3 (with fixed extravesicular Cl concentration) yielded a sigmoidal curve for 36Cl uptake. In contrast, increasing intravesicular OH concentration in the presence of equimolar intra- and extravesicular HCO3 (25 mM) yielded a saturable hyperbolic curve. Increasing extravesicular Cl concentration saturated both HCO3 gradient-stimulated and OH gradient-stimulated 36Cl uptake, with a kinetic constant for Cl of approximately 11.9 and 22.6 mM, respectively. We conclude that Cl uptake in AMV of rat distal colon occurs via two separate anion (Cl-HCO3 and Cl-OH) exchange processes. We speculate that one of these two anion exchanges may be responsible for transcellular Cl movement, while the other may be important in the regulation of intracellular pH homeostasis.
